Beautiful plants and superb scenery Magnar. I think you'd be right at home down here in NZ. :D

Magnar,
Beautiful photos! I meet Saxifraga stellaris very often in the Alps and it is mostly found on mossy tundra or by mountain streams between 1800 and 2700 m.
I very much enjoyed browsing your website. Your plants are just marvellous.
